Rafael Nadal cut to 7-4 to win Australian Open
Rafael Nadal is the new 7-4 favourite with bookmaker Coral to win the men’s Australian Open following his straight sets victory over Milos Raonic this morning. 17-time Grand Slam winner Roger Federer is second best in the outright market at 21-10, US Open champion Stanislas Wawrinka is 11-4 and Grigor Dimitrov is the outsider of the four players at 6-1.
Roger Federer is 4-6 favourite to get past his fellow Swiss compatriot Wawrinka tomorrow morning, while Nadal has opened up the 4-9 favourite to reach the final at the expense of Dimitrov.
“The betting suggests we could be rolling back the years with a Federer-Nadal final as they are both the favourites in their respective semi-final matches,” said Coral’s John Hill.
